The Lakeside High School senior will canvass the streets of Jones Creek, picking up clothing donations for Child Enrichment Inc., a nonprofit organization that assists abused and neglected children in the Augusta area.

Burke, 17, is working toward his Eagle Scout badge and organized the clothing drive as his project.

“What I really like about Child Enrichment is that they help children who can’t really help themselves,” Burke said. “Once children are taken out of their house, it’s really hard for them to get back on the right track.

“The least I can do is to help ... supply them with clothing.”

Burke is seeking new or gently worn children’s clothing to give to Child Enrichment’s Children’s Clothing Closet. The organization will accept only new socks and underwear.
